3D printing accessory manufacturer, Bondtech has launched a time and cost-saving extruder.

Leveraging the company’s proven and highly regarded Dual-Drive technology, the BMG extruder combines low weight with high feeding capacity, and ensures maximum performance without grinding and slipping. The BMG’s design brings a market-leading force to weight ratio, which will give the most responsive and best solution for feeding material with high reliability and performance, according to Bondtech.

From slippery nylons and TPU/TPE filaments, to highly rigid and brittle carbon-filled high-strength materials, the BMG extruder can feed materials of all kinds reliably. The thumbscrew tensioner allows the user to fine-tune the pressure exerted by the drive gears onto the filament. This gives the user freedom to adjust according to their preferences and optimise for the type of material that will be used.

The BMG extruder also houses the ability to do material changes in quick fashion. Users can simply activate its Quick-Release lever, which will release the tension and pull the desired material to be changed out of the extruder. Remaining activated, a new material can then be inserted. BMG’s multi-application design also means it can be used in a Bowden or direct set-ups, and gives the user room to choose what works best for their applications. Additionally, it features an integrated hotend retention method compatible with the E3D-V6 hotends or others using the GrooveMount standard, which makes mounting the hotend an easy, ‘wobble-free’ process.

Bondtech’s Dual-Drive technology delivers uninterrupted material flow without the risk of grinding or slipping, in even the most demanding conditions. The company cites its customer base around the world to attest that its extruders perform seamlessly in prints with thousands of retracts, with unmatched precision and minimal damage to the filament.
